Labor & Employment

China’s labor and employment situation is undergoing substantial changes. The integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into corporate practices is gaining momentum in China, with an emphasis on protecting workers’ rights and interests. Meanwhile, China offers more protection to workers in aspects such as severance pay, as mandated by law. Therefore, legal compliance issues related to labor and employment in China have an increasingly significant influence on business operations and management.

Key services include:

• Contentious and non-contentious labor and employment law matters, encompassing termination of employment, sexual harassment and discrimination, as well as dispute resolution and litigation.
• Industrial relations strategies and bargaining.
• Managing workplace health and safety liability and providing legal assistance in the event of a workplace incident, accident, or fatality.
• All aspects related to the regulation, management, and restructuring of pensions.
• Reviewing employment documentation and policies to ensure compliance with local and international legislation.
• Managing the influence and demands of other stakeholders such as regulators and trade unions.
• Managing the transfer of employment and business issues emerging in corporate M&A transactions.
